Limited Traffic Zone in Milan (ZTL)
Milan is one of the most visited cities in Italy, so traffic happens to be very congested. For this reason, the municipality has introduced a series of antipollution provisions, in order to increase the air quality over the time. In the following section, we will try to explain the guidelines for the access to the main Limited Traffic Zones in Milan, so that you can drive light-hearted, without risking to be fined. The main ZTL in Milan are called C and B areas.
The Cerchia Bastioni perimeters, known as Area C, are delimited by roughly forty-three accesses, seven of which are dedicated to public transport. To enter in this macro-area that coincides with the Old Town, you will need to buy the proper ticket from an authorised dealer (newsstands, tobacconists, ATM points, Intesa Sanpaolo bancomat and so on). In alternative you can send an SMS to 48444, reporting AREAC and your plate number in capital letters, separated by a point: “AREAC.PLATENUMBER”.
However, the access to the ZTL is always forbidden for petrol-powered vehicles Euro 0 and 1, as well as for diesel-powered Euro 0, 1, 2, 3. On the other hand, electric and hybrid cars (class M1, hybrid-electric engine with emissions ≤ to 100 g/km) can freely enter and circulate in the Area C. The traffic limitation is active on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, form 7:30am to 7:30pm, and on Saturday from 7:30am to 6:00pm. Every ticket is valid for 1 day and should be paid within 24 hours from the access to the restricted area. Usually the access is free on Sunday and public holidays.
The district called Area B is right outside the Area C and has 185 monitored entrances, but there is no ticket to pay. The area is off limits from Monday to Friday (7:30am-7:30pm), for petrol-powered vehicles Euro 0, or diesel-powered vehicles Euro 0,1,2,3,4.
Here is an handbook with the main Italian traffic rules.
Piazza gae Aulenti was inaugurated on 8th December 2012 and has become the epicenter of modernity in Milan.
The rehabilitation was directed by Cesar Pelli, an Argentinian Architect. The square is enclosed by many buildings, the most important is the 231 meters tall UniCredit Tower which is the highest skyscraper in Italy. When the sun goes down, the square comes alive with the Solar Tree in the center of the square lights the area using solar energy accumulated during the day. In the vicinity there is The Vertical Forest, designed by Stefano Boeri, two towers covered by 2.000 species of plants.
The Cimitero Monumentale is one of the most impressive attractions in Milan. The sculptures and the architectures of the Monumental Cemetery are considered by many as an open-air museum with masters “works of art”. It’s possible to do a tour inside, usually free. It is the largest cemetery in Milan and contains a Jewish section and tombs of non-Catholic families.
The famedio, designed to be a church, host the bodies of prominent citizens which Alessandro Manzoni, Salvatore Quasimodo, Giorgio Gaber . The last body interred was of Dario Fo,took place on 15 October 2016.

5 stars, I would have given 6... I must say I was fully satisfied with the service provided. Starting with the location: easy to find, an entrance system with numbers that prevents crowds or arguments over the line, hand sanitizer, plus plexiglass barriers between staff and customers.
